Dunno if I'd ever park a super valuable rare car like that on the street in this society, for this very reason.

Expensive to fix for sure. Good thing he's got more bread than a prison meatloaf.

So sad to hear this happened. It can be repaired, but man!!
I often worry about my 07RS... but a 73RSR!?

Friend of mine got some pics of it last week and I loved the fact Jerry was driving it to work!

Jerry took one for the team. In that I mean in driving these incredibly rare cars on the street this can happen. The upside is Porsche enthusiasts get to enjoy seeing them and Jerry gets to enjoy driving them. The alternative is not fun for anyone. Drive on Jerry.

Very well said. It's a car, a race car at that, it can be fixed.

I want to be Jerry when I grow up.

He can probably just slum it in his 918 while the RSR is in the shop.

Sure, he can afford to make it "as new"
And he has the resources to do whatever is needed

Given that, I love the fact that he actually cared...

Regardless if its a rare million dollar race car or a 20K VW, no one wants to be a victim of idiots on the road that have no regard for other peoples property.
